there is lots of drama at the moment, we understand that .. heh we have been part of it but we still have no clan forum guys!
The Monki-House is a vital meeting point for us and it would be grand if we could have an update please.

can i call 'them' names now please?

I asked thrue pm,s and shit but just no answer...

Marval was the 1 with an answer but he stated his powers don't reach this far.. only twill and andy know.

Agreed. I understand about Thanksgiving and I hope Twill spent the day with his family. At the same time a "We are working on it" would be nice.

I'm sure Lack can do without getting the clap from you Jim - he has enough on his plate at the moment as it is!
The nature of Image was irrepressible!

I'm still working on restoring the missing forums. It is taking a while because I had to clean up some archived game logs on the server to make room for unzipping the most recent backup taken before the server crash. I may need an additional 48 hours or so because loading the backup takes quite a while (although it won't in the future thanks to that clean up :-)).

Hooray that the first thing we've heard from lack or twill in 4 days... and it's good news! I was worried that you were getting shut down or something. Glad to hear we'll get stuff back soon. Thanks for working so hard.

The misssing usergroup forums should now be available:

Generation One: The Clan
The Spanking Monkeys
Soldiers of War
Nemesis

Sorry it took so long. It was quite an ordeal to pull them from a backup and make it work. But now we can put that server crash behind us :)
